In our 30th episode, we’re joined by Barry Nugent (in the U.K.) from the Geek Syndicate podcast to discuss his how his novel FALLEN HEROES started out being self-published through Lulu.com and has since been optioned for adaptations into both a graphic novel and a TV series.

We also discuss how and why changes are made when stories are adapted to other media, past and upcoming adaptations of Sherlock Holmes, and our opinions about The War of the Worlds (starring Tom Cruise) and Indiana Jones & the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.
